I've agreed to watch the game with a bunch of a France fans.
My vocal chords made a formal protest, but I'm going anyway

England losing on penalties, yet again. Abysmal 2nd half performance, some strange subs from Roy Hodgson (timing of them mainly). Hopefully we can get rid of this so-called 'golden generation' now and build the team around Hart, Rooney, Wilshere, Welbeck, Sturridge etc._________________Hear me now

I'm not convinced Rooney is worth it. He's certainly good in the Premier League, but I think there's more hype to him than there is actual ability, at the international level. Sure, he can get where he's needed, but his finishing is appalling. I was hoping he'd be brought off in favour of someone like Defoe (and that's hard to admit, for me)._________________I am a Star Wars fan. That doesn't mean that I hate or love Jar Jar.

His finishing is far from appalling. He's had yet another tournament where he's not been match fit to start. He picked up an ankle injury at the end of the season, played 20 minutes in one friendly and then had to sit out the first two games suspended. Need him firing on all cylinders if we're going to do well._________________Hear me now

Ah yes, Furia VS Azzurri. Team I root for VS the team my best friend roots for. Bloody priceless, I say!

I was more than happy with the way things turned out. Considering three of the four teams in the semi-final were teams that I'd predicted to be in the semis, at the beginning, I'm pleased to have an 'outside' team in the final._________________I am a Star Wars fan.

Going to be a very close tactical game Sunday. The Italians are hard to break down and are very disciplined so no striker again for Spain could be a big problem for them. No point knocking the ball around the edge of the box if no-one has the balls to put it in the net when they get half a yard of a clear sight at goal._________________Hear me now
